Tender Offers

On December 4, 2025, Dana Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Dana”), and Dana Financing Luxembourg S.à r.l., a Luxembourg private limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Dana (“Dana Financing”), commenced cash tender offers (the “Offers”) under an offer to purchase (the “Offer to Purchase”) for certain of their outstanding notes.

Pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, Dana and Dana Financing are offering to purchase at 100% of the principal amount tendered, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the purchase date, (i) up to $173 million of Dana’s 5.375% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), (ii) up to $173 million of Dana’s 5.625% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”), (iii) up to €141 million of Dana Financing’s 3.000% Senior Notes due 2029, (iv) up to $173 million of Dana’s 4.250% Senior Notes due 2030, (v) up to €184 million of Dana Financing’s 8.500% Senior Notes due 2031 and (vi) up to $152 million of Dana’s 4.500% Senior Notes due 2032 (collectively, the “Notes”).

The Offers are being made in connection with the previously disclosed pending sale of Dana’s off-highway business (the “Off-Highway Business Sale”). Upon the consummation of the Off-Highway Business Sale, Dana expects to receive net proceeds of approximately $2.3 billion in cash and to use approximately $1,066 million of such proceeds to fund the purchase of the Notes (including the payment of accrued and unpaid interest) pursuant to the Offers as one of the first steps in the previously disclosed debt reduction plan.

The Offers are conditioned on Dana receiving proceeds from the consummation of the Off-Highway Business Sale (the “Asset Sale Condition”) and other customary conditions.

Each Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 5, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated. Payment for the Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase is expected to occur promptly after the expiration of the Offers. D.F. King & Co., Inc. has been retained to act as the tender agent and information agent for the Offers. Additional information regarding the terms of the Offers is set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell or purchase, or the solicitation of tenders with respect to, any security. No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful. The Offers are being made solely pursuant to the Offer to Purchase and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as is permitted under applicable law.

Redemption of 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes

On December 4, 2025, Dana issued notices of conditional full redemption (the “Redemption”) with a redemption date of January 8, 2026 (the “Redemption Date”) for all of Dana’s outstanding 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. Any 2027 Notes or 2028 Notes not accepted for payment pursuant to the Offers will be redeemed pursuant to the Redemption, subject to the conditions of the Redemption. The Redemption is conditioned upon the Asset Sale Condition. In Dana’s discretion, if the Asset Sale Condition is not satisfied, or cannot be satisfied, on or prior to the Redemption Date, the notices of conditional full redemption may be rescinded by Dana and shall be of no effect. Upon completion of the Offers and the Redemption with respect to the 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes, the 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes will be fully repaid.
